I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Applied Materials in Sep 2021
Interview
Regular phone conversation.
I had 3 interviews, all people who said were responsible for the hiring process but had no decision power.
One actually wrote I would go to a next round to later not even respond to e-mails
It feels like a place which likes talking to candidates and then ghost after that.... the applications stay under consideration for months.
